ggzilla Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Nice, that bumper could work out well if you find a way to narrow it. Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Well I plan on doing lots of measuring, got a four foot band saw that might give a nice clean cut, but ill probly wait till I can buy another cold saw blade. And hey if I fuck up ill make split bumpers, if those arent workin ill try bumperettes, there are plenty of other bumpers out there but if I was spending money on them id go jdm and be done.

king bee66 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 if you could find some smaller bumper nubs like off of a 73 610 or maybe a 1200 you could possibly use them to hid the cuts you make. just a thought. Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Ill take lots of pics, if it works out well it could be another option as they go for 50 bucks apeice if there straight, cheaper than most. Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 The rear bumper off the corvair was bent in a couple places but hell They where free before and after rear bumper i may give it another go when im off the meds, I also got the front bumper laid out, its at a 9 -14 degree angle so I plan on tappering it off and not going around the sides, the rear actuly looked pretty good on the front but the feont didnt work on the back. Unlike most of my other pics, this looks way better in person Quote Link to comment

B210GX Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 vex210... that one is from a sedan model.. it does not have the reflectors and may not fit the coupe. They dont like to ship bumpers to the US as the length kills the deal. unless you take the slow boat... which I did on my rear bumper. I got my front bumper from Portugal Mike Quote Link to comment

RedBanner Posted July 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 It takes atleast 30 beers to do a 63a swap, my auto car was a straight swap, my 4 speed car I had to make a trans mount crossmember, I hope the angles right. It drives awsome but I havent hooked the speedo up yet becouse it needs a alittle hammer love . And my trans mount is hobbled to gether from shop floor scraps. Tomaro clean the shop and the ride, double check torque and pound a space for my speedo cable. Amd wire whell some floor parts before rust takes hold amd put alittle paint down Quote Link to comment
